CARDIFF coach Rudy Joubert has confirmed that Iestyn Harris is set to start against Glasgow on Saturday.

Having begun his Union career in impressive style as a replacement at Llanelli last weekend, Harris will now make his full debut in the vital Heineken Cup clash with the Scots at the Arms Park.

"We haven't made the final decision, but that's pretty much what it seems like at the moment," said Joubert. "It's going to be a big test for Iestyn on Saturday.

"It will be a tough one for him, because it's going to be a high-pressure game and one that we need to win to stay in the running for the Heineken Cup. He realises that. He is a team man and he won't let the side down.

"He is keen to get out there and prove a point. I think he came through the game very well at Llanelli. He looked really good. You wouldn't have thought it was his first time on a rugby union field.

"He has still got work to do. There are a couple of issues he has to iron out in his game coming from league. I think Saturday is going to give us an even better insight into how much more work needs to be done with him."

Harris is set to start at fly-half, which could see Nicky Robinson moving to full-back and Rhys Williams switching to the wing

Cardiff are hoping that second row John Tait could make a rapid recovery from his rib injury in time to face Glasgow.
